Our Mission on Display:
In 1999, Port City Community Church embarked on a journey with the mission "to reach people and help them walk with God."
From the beginning, our mission helped to shape us into the kind of church we wanted to become. As we approached our 25th anniversary, we wanted to commemorate our mission statement in a unique and visually captivating way. Here is the story of how this project came together.
To bring our mission to life, we commissioned Doc Reed to create a mural on the Atrium wall of the Wilmington Campus.
Check out the video interview above with Doc Reed as he shares the process of creating the mural and the symbolism woven into the details!

About the Artist:
Doc Reed is a multidisciplinary designer and creative and the founder of the Reedicus design studio. Design and illustration captivated him early in life, and he never let go. Doc draws inspiration from those classic Chuck Jones cartoons and a healthy dose of 90s surf and skate culture, bringing a playful yet polished sensibility to every project.
Whether crafting a gig poster or leading the creative vision and storytelling for a national conference, his work is driven by an unquenchable thirst to make people smile, laugh, and think. Blending bold, detailed design with vibrant colors, Doc’s ultimate goal is to craft impactful visual experiences that captivate and inspire.
Doc served on staff at Port City Church from 2012-2016.
